    Plum, 4 was Cowboy, not me. 6 is Arlo Guthrie, The Motorcycle Song, or The Truth About the Pickle (or something like that)

    Cowboy:
    #1 is Good Hearted Woman, Waylon Jennings.
    #3 is Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound, Hank Williams Jr. Yeehaaah! Wish I had a dollar for every time I've played those songs.
    #4 is Tulsa Time by Don something-or-other, the dude with the old beatup hat.
    #5 is Big City by Merle Haggard (turn me loost and set me free)

    Okey dokey, some more country tunes for ya, to continue Cowboy's new slant on it...

    1. So I punched out my truck on a telephone pole
      Lawd, she never looked back, she just said, "Go, driver, go"
      Well I know I could have caught her, but I ran out of luck
      She was long gone for Lufkin b'time they cut me outa my truck
    2. Boston, Charleston, Dayton, Lousiana,
      Washington, Houston, Kingston, Texas County,
      Monterey, Fairaday, Santa Fe, Tollaperson,
      Glen Rock, Black Rock, Little Rock, Oskaloussa,
      Tennessee, Tinnesay, Chickapee, Spirit Lake,
      Grand Lake, Devil's Lake, Crater Lake
      For Pete's Sake
    3. Now the boys all thought I'd lost my sense
      Them telephone poles looked like a picket fence
    4. If I could only see
      That familiar sunrise
      Tthrough sleepy eyes
      How happy I'd be
    5. Now, eleven million later
      I's sittin' in a bar
      I bought the house a double
      And the waitress a new car.
    6. As we taxi toward the runway
      With the smog and haze reminding me of how I feel
      Just a country boy who's learning
      That the pitfalls of the city are extemely real

    I know I know this one. In fact It's around the house somewhere. I have to ask my kid

    some added lines to # 7

    Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
    eating chocolate cake in a bag.
    The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
    They look just like two gurus in drag".
    Caught an early plane back to London.
    Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
    The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
    It's good to have the both of you back".
    The rest of the song is chorus

    Plum, I saw that and was gonna say what it was, but somehow I forgot to do it! It's the Beatles, and I don't know the name of the song but it might be "Crucify Me" cuz that's what John keeps saying they're gonna do, the way things are going.

    Plmkrzy, that's The Ballad of John and Yoko, by the Beatles.

    You make me hot, you make me sigh, you make me laugh, you make me cry... keep me burnin for your love, with the touch of a velvet glove ...(chorus) 5

    ...(chorus) I'm gonna reach out and grabya

    # 3 Is Soooo easy. Everyone in the world should know it. ...maybe

    Yep Comf thatthe right song but the title isn't crusify me. The song was a joke, John Lennon sang it with Paul MCartney about John Lennons relationship with yoko ono.

    LMAO! Yeh thats the one.

    If I could only see
    That familiar sunrise
    Tthrough sleepy eyes
    How happy I'd be

    Blue Bayou, Roy Orbison (or Linda Ronstadt, take your pick)
